Changing a field to use combs

Lastly, you will change a field to use a comb. When you use combs for a field, the field is divided up with vertical lines. Combed fields are useful for visually indicating to the form filler the correct number of characters that must be entered in a field. For example, you will change the SSN (Social Security Number) field to use a comb of nine characters.

To change the SSN field to use a comb:

  1. In the Hierarchy palette, select SSN.
  2. In the Object palette, click the Field tab, select Comb Of, type 9 in the corresponding box, and then press Enter.

You have changed the SSN field to use a comb.
